Mitt will probably take a lot of heat here on FR for not completely aligning himself with Huckabee.

I understand why he is doing it, though, and basically his job now is to unseat Obamugabe, and the best way to do that is to focus on Obamugabe’s epic failure in the economy.

So cut him some slack, guys and gals. :)

Good answer. Let it play out by itself.

The American people will either come out in droves to support marriage, or a few homos will stage a street orgy. It isn't his problem.
In fact, the only people who have a problem are the 1.7% homosexuals, so who cares what they think? Let then eat carpet.

I was never going to vote for him in the first case so it certainly doesn’t affect my vote.

hurts to know that even a tool like Mike Bloomberg is capable of offering a righteous answer on CFA when called on to do so:

Hurts?

Why would someone who is parallel to the likes of Mussolini bring pain in a free society which can slam him down in a blink when he opens his collective, Marxist, fascist trap?

“that’s not something that’s part of my campaign”.

Translation:

“What’s in it for me? I’ve got an election to win here.
I’m the heir apparent to the presidency according to Karl Rove and his establishment buddies and I don’t make a move without their approval.
Besides, I’m not a conservative and this sounds like something the stupid Tea Party cooked up”.

So lemme get this straight: Mittens considers stopping in at Chick FA to get a sandwich in support of free speech and Dan Cathy is a “distraction”? Uh huh.

Here is an Alinskyism for today's headlines:

One of several alternative components to the personal vilification strategy is to remember that "the real action is in the enemy's reaction. If you do a good enough job, you can force them to make a mistake. When they do, you must be ready to exploit it."

Romney needs to set the agenda himself. Stay on the subject. The left cannot win an honest debate.

Eat Mo Chicken
Elect Mo Conservatives

Mr. Romney can offer an opinion on the Olympic games,
but has no opinion on the NATIONAL Chick-fil-a debate.
Nor does he have an opinion on the HISTORIC Texas senate race?

Eat Mo Chicken
Elect Mo Conservatives

Exactly. It's totally beneath the GOP-e to be involved with the "unwashed people" issues. If it's not scripted...the plastic front men don't have an opinion.

Bloomberg’s comments are so ironic, they left me speechless.

Please go back to DU, they miss you there.

Mitt doesn’t want to be aligned with a bunch of retrograde haters.

Good job Mitt... the great majority of those “haters” are also legitimate “voters”.

He's a coward, a two faced douchebag, and a serial liar who doesn't have a conservative bone in his body and will say or do anything to get elected, then govern like a leftist.

Won't be cutting the Kolobian any slack, this is the real Romney, and a preview of what he will do as POTUS.

Stab conservatives in the back.

Surprise, surprise. But hey, just wait a bit, and once the polls come in, it will be, to an extent, under certain conditions.

For awhile.

1.) I'm not "Mountain Mary." Learn to read for simple, baseline comprehension, at barest minimum.

2.) I've got a good eight years on you, n00b. Tell JimRob you think I'm from DU; see what sort of horselaugh you get, by way of response.

This CFA nonsense is beneath the office of the President. If a few nanny mayors and ex-congressman homosexuals want to chime in, go for it.

Neither Romney nor Obama should really have anything to say about it. Obama’s already learned the hard way not to inject himself into minor affairs.

When’s the last time a Republican politician stood with Conservatives even when it was inconvenient? Honest question.
